Something For The Soul

(View Daily Bread)
Psalm 119:9-16 (NIV)
Beth

9 How can a young man keep his way pure?
By living according to your word.
10 I seek you with all my heart;
do not let me stray from your commands.
11 I have hidden your word in my heart
that I might not sin against you.
12 Praise be to you, O LORD;
teach me your decrees.
13 With my lips I recount
all the laws that come from your mouth.
14 I rejoice in following your statutes
as one rejoices in great riches.
15 I meditate on your precepts
and consider your ways.
16 I delight in your decrees;
I will not neglect your word.

Lord, reading Your Word daily brings me joy renews my faith. It deepens my understanding and teaches me the way I should live my life, so that it's fulfilling and purposeful.

I do find myself not doing enough for a particular area, and that's storing up Your Word in my heart. I should really start remembering verses, for that's the way to have permanent reminders of Your greatness and goodness, anytime, anywhere.

Father I want to commit myself to start today.
